For example, server 302 comprises JVM1 and java application 302c.Server 302 also comprises the RJVM2 of the JVM2 of representative server 303.If message will send to server 303 from server 302, then message sends to RJVM1 in the server 303 by the RJVM2 in the server 302.
C. forwards
Clustered enterprise Java network 300 can be transmitted message by intermediate server.If from background server request service, then this function is important to client computer by the foreground gateway.For example, from the message of server 302 (client computer 302) and particularly JVM1 can be forwarded to client computer 304 (background server 304) or JVM3 by server 303 (foreground gateway) or JVM2.This function is concentrated or is important individual the connection when setting up what between server and the various client computer in the control session.
And forwards can be used in the situation that can not create joint between two JVM.For example, the sender of message just moves under the applet safe mode, and this pattern does not allow to be created to the joint of original server.The detailed description of applet security model can be obtained from http://www.javasoft.com website, and this website is listed in here for your guidance.When another example comprises after the recipient of message is in fire wall.In addition, as described below, it is client computer and recipient when being client computer that forwards also can be applied in the sender, does not therefore accept any input adapter.
For example, if message sends to client computer 304 from server 302, then this message will have to select the footpath by server 303.Specifically, will make between the RJVM3 (representative client 304), the message shown in 302f is switched is the RJVM2 (representative server 303) that switches in the server 302.Message will utilize joint 302e in server 302 RJVM2 and the RJVM1 in the server 303 between transmit.Then, message press shown in the dotted line 303f like that, the RJVM1 from server 303 switches to the RJVM3 in the server 303.Then, message will transmit between the joint of the RJVM2 in RJVM3 in the server 303 and the client computer 304.At last, message will by shown in the dotted line 304f like that, the RJVM2 from client computer 304 is sent to the RJVM1 in the client computer 304.
D. select the footpath again
RJVM in the client/server can be at any time switches to other RJVM with communication path or communication medium.For example, if client computer 304 is created to the direct joint of server 302, then server 302 just can bring into use this joint to replace forwards by server 303.This embodiment illustrates with the dotted line and the square of representative client 304.In one embodiment, by the use of RJVM message transfer guaranteed occur network reconfigure after reliable orderly message transmit.For example, if being reconfigured to communication medium 301, client computer 304 replaces the communication medium 305 shown in Fig. 3 c.In another embodiment, message can not transmit in order.
RJVM carries out several end-to-end operations of selecting footpath (routing) realization by route.Detection when at first, RJVM is responsible for each client/server accident deadlock.In one embodiment, the equity disappearance selects software section 362 to be responsible for this functions shown in Fig. 3 b.In one embodiment, when not sending other message at interval at the fixed time, RJVM sends to other client/server with heartbeat (heartbeat) message.If client/server does not receive heartbeat message in the preset count time, then detect the client/server that send heartbeat and broken down.In one embodiment, by connecting overtime or whether at the fixed time the client/server that to break down does not send message in the amount and detect the client/server that breaks down.The client/server that the joint indication of breaking down in another embodiment, is broken down.
Secondly, during the message serialization, each RJVM, particularly message compression software 360, and the data value of the common transmission of reduction is to reduce message size.In order to achieve this end, each JVM/RJVM is to keeping coupling reduction table.For example, JVM1 comprises that reduction table and RJVM1 comprise coupling reduction table.During transmitting between the intermediate server, the main body of message is not carried out deserializing on the intermediate server in route in message.
E. multilayer/reciprocity function
Clustered enterprise Java structure 300 is considered multilayer and equity programming.
Clustered enterprise Java structure 300 is supported explicit grammer consistent with multilayer distributed Processing Structure, that be used for the client/server programming.For instance, following client-side code snippet writes informational message in the server log file:
T3Client?clnt=new?T3Client(″t3://acme:7001″);
LogServices?log=clnt.getT3?Services().log();
Log.into(″Hello?from?a?client″);
First row utilizes the t3 agreement to set up and top (acme) server session.If RJVM does not also exist, then each JVM constructs the RJVM about the opposing party, and sets up bottom (underlying) TCP joint.The client-side of this session represents-the T3Client object-and server side represent to communicate by these RJVM.Server side is supported various services, comprises database access, remote document access, work space, incident and log record.Second row obtains the LogServices object and the third line is write message.
Clustered enterprise Java computer organization 300 is also supported the grammer of the server neutrality consistent with reciprocity distributed processing structure.For instance, obtain counterfoil module the name service of deferring to JNDI of following code snippet from server, and call one of its method about the RMI object.
Hashtable?env=new?Hashtable();
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL,″t3://acme:7001″);
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,
″weblogic.jndi.WeblogicInitialContextFactory″);
Context?ctx=new?InitialContext(env);
Example?e=(Example)ctx.lookup(″acme.eng.example″);
result=e.example(37);
In one embodiment, the JNDI naming context is packaged into the RMI object to realize remote access.Therefore, code has shown one type RMI guiding (bootstrap) above.Before four lines obtain on the top server RMI stub about initial context.If RJVM does not also exist, then each side constructs the RJVM about the opposing party, and sets up the bottom TCP joint that is used for the t3 agreement.Called side object-RMIstub and callee's object-RMI impl-communicate by RJVM.Fifth line is searched another RMI object on title acme.eng.example, and promptly Example and the 6th row call one of Example method.In one embodiment, Example impl is not on the treatment facility identical with the name service.In another embodiment, Example impl is on client computer.The Example object call the establishment that has caused suitable RJVM, if their also non-existent words.
II. know counterfoil module/EJB object that duplicate or intelligence
In Fig. 3 c, treatment facility can provide service by other treatment facility in structure 300 by duplicating RMI and/or EJB object.Therefore, structure 300 be easy to stretch with fault-tolerant.Add in existing treatment facility or the new additional treatment facility by RMI and/or the EJB object that will duplicate, can easily Additional Services be added in the structure 300.And because RMI and/or EJB object can duplicate by structure 300, therefore, single treatment facility, a plurality of treatment facility and/or communication medium may break down, but still structure 300 can not be worked or significantly degenerate.
Fig. 5 a represents the RA counterfoil module 580 in the structure 500.Structure 500 comprises the client computer 504 that is connected with communication medium 501.Server 502 is connected with communication medium 501 respectively with 503.Permanent storage device 509 is connected with 503 with server 502 with 561 by communication medium 560 respectively.In various embodiment, communication medium 501,560 and 561 can be aforesaid wired and/or wireless communication media.Similarly, in one embodiment, client computer 504, server 502 and server 503 can be aforesaid client-server.Will be understood by those skilled in the art that in other alternative embodiment, a plurality of other servers and client computer can being included in the structure 500 shown in suspension points like that.In addition, as mentioned above, in other alternative embodiment, the configuration of the hardware and software of client computer 504, server 502 and server 503 is as described below and shown in Figure 8.
RA RMI counterfoil module 580 is a kind of smart stub modules that can find out nearly all ISP and switch between them according to balancing method of loads 507 and/or fault handling method 508.In one embodiment, RA counterfoil module 580 comprises the copying processor 506 of selecting suitable balancing method of loads 507 and/or fault handling method 507.In other alternative embodiment, can implement single balancing method of loads and/or single fault disposal route.In other alternative embodiment, copying processor 506 can comprise multi-load balance method and/or multiple faults disposal route and their combination.In one embodiment, copying processor 506 is achieved as follows interface:
public?interface?ReplicaHandler{
Object?loadBalance(Object?currentProvider)throws
RefreshAbortedException;
Object?failOver(Object?failedProvider,
RemoteException?e)throws
RemoteException;
}
Be right after and call before a kind of method, RA counterfoil module 580 calls balancing method of loads 507, and it takes over current server, and returns replacement person.For example, client computer 504 may be utilized the data of server 502 searching database 509a or permanent storage device 509.Because server 502 burden services request are overweight, therefore, balancing method of loads 507 can switch to server 503.Processor 506 may be selected the fully server replacement person on called side, perhaps utilizes the information about server 502 loads, perhaps, and the data that copying processor 506 can request server 502 retrieval particular types.For example, processor 506 can select particular server to solve an equation, because server has improved computing power.In one embodiment, in fact copying processor 506 need all not switch the supplier at every turn when calling, because copying processor 506 is just attempting to make the linking number of establishment minimum.
Fig. 6 a is the control flow chart of the load balance software 507 shown in the key diagram 5a-b.Should be appreciated that Fig. 6 a is the control flow chart of the logic sequence of the function finished by the software in the balancing method of loads 507 of explanation or step.In other alternative embodiment, can finish additional function or step.And in other alternative embodiment, hardware can be carried out specific function or all functions.
Load balance software 507 is from the position shown in the circle 600.Then, determine in logical block 601 whether invokes thread has set up " sibship " to particular server.Client computer has sibship and server and it oneself sibship to be arranged with the server of coordinating its current issued transaction.If sibship is set up, then control is entered logical block 602, otherwise then control enters logical block 604.Determine in logical block 602 whether akin server provides institute's requested service.If then control is entered logical block 603.Otherwise then control enters logical block 604.ISP on the akin server is returned to client computer in the logical block 603.In logical block 604, current service supplier's tabulation that contact name service and obtaining has been upgraded.In logical block 605, call getNextProvider (taking off a server) method to obtain the ISP.The various embodiment of getNextProvider method are presented among Fig. 6 b-g, will be described in detail below.In logical block 606, obtain service.Then, if service is not provided, then call fault handling method 508 in logical block 606, last, balancing method of loads 507 withdraws from from the position shown in the logical block 608.The embodiment of fault handling method 508 is illustrated among Fig. 7, will be described in detail below.
Fig. 6 b-g shows the various embodiment of employed getNextProvider method in the logical block 605 of Fig. 6 a.Shown in Fig. 6 b, the getNextProvider method is selected the ISP in a looping fashion.Shown in circle 621, enter getNextProvider method 620.In logical block 622, obtain current service supplier tabulation.In logical block 623, increase progressively pointer.In logical block 624, select next ISP, and in logical block 625, return new ISP according to pointer, last, shown in circle 626, withdraw from the getNextProvider method.
Fig. 6 c shows by selecting the ISP to obtain the another kind of alternate embodiments of ISP's getNextProvider method at random.Shown in circle 631, enter getNextProvider method 630.The current service supplier that obtains like that shown in logical block 632 tabulates.Shown in logical block 633, select next ISP like that at random, and in logical block 634, return new ISP, last, shown in circle 635, withdraw from the getNextProvider method.
The getNextProvider method also has an embodiment to be presented among Fig. 6 d, and it obtains the ISP according to each ISP's load.Shown in circle 641, enter getNextProvider method 640.In logical block 642, obtain current service supplier tabulation.In logical block 643, obtain each ISP's load.At logical block 674, described method is selected the ISP based on each ISP's the time interval, promptly selects the ISP who responds at interval with the shortest time.At last, in logical block 645, return new ISP, and shown in circle 646, withdraw from the getNextProvider method.
Another alternative embodiment of getNextProvider method is presented among Fig. 6 e, and it obtains the ISP according to the data type of obtaining from the ISP.Shown in circle 651, enter getNextProvider method 650.In logical block 652, obtain current service supplier tabulation.In logical block 653, determine from the type of the data of ISP's request.Then, in logical block 654, select the load ISP according to data type.At last, in logical block 655, return new ISP, and shown in circle 656, withdraw from the getNextProvider method.
Another embodiment of getNextProvider method is illustrated among Fig. 6 f, and it selects the ISP according to ISP's physical location.Shown in circle 661, enter getNextProvider method 660.In logical block 662, obtain current service supplier tabulation.In logical block 663, be determined to each ISP's physical distance and in logical block 664, choose the nearest ISP of physical distance of the client computer of asking.At last, in logical block 665, return new ISP, and shown in circle 666, withdraw from getNextProvider method 660.
Also being presented among Fig. 6 g at one embodiment of getNextProvider method, it responds the time quantum that former request spends according to the ISP and selects the ISP.Shown in circle 671, enter the control of getNextProvider method 670.In logical block 672, obtain current service supplier tabulation.Determine that in logical block 673 each ISP responds the time interval of particular message.Then, the ISP that selection responded at interval with the shortest time in logical block 674.At last, in logical block 675, return new ISP, and shown in circle 676, withdraw control from the getNextProvider method.
If calling to guarantee that the such mode of retry is out of order of method of servicing, then RA counterfoil module 580 calls fault handling method 508, and it takes over the server and the prompting of breaking down is the unusual of what fault, and returns the new server that a retry is used.If new server is inapplicable, then 580 reports of RA counterfoil module are unusual.
Fig. 7 is the control flow chart of the fault handling software 508 shown in the key diagram 5a-b.Shown in circle 700, enter fault handling method 508.Logical block 701 supplier that deletion is broken down from current supplier's tabulation of service.Then, call the getNextProvider method so that obtain the ISP.At last, returning new ISP in the logical block 703 and shown in circle 704, withdrawing from fault handling method 508.
Though the embodiment of Fig. 6-7 expression copying processor 506, other alternative embodiment also comprises the following function of realization in a looping fashion or their combination.
At first, server or ISP's tabulation of maintenance service.Need use and tabulate when not being updated recently whenever tabulating, the up-to-date tabulation that processor 506 is just got in touch name service as described below and obtained the supplier.
Secondly, if processor 506 plans to select from tabulation the supplier to be connected with the existing RJVM level that has master server, this master server does not receive message at last heart beat cycle, and then processor 506 is skipped this supplier.In one embodiment, because the disappearance of equity is to determine that therefore, server can recover afterwards after several such eartbeat intervals.Like this, just can obtain load balance based on server load.
The 3rd, when the supplier broke down, processor 506 is this supplier of deletion from tabulation.So just avoided repeated attempt to use the caused delay of idle ISP.
The 4th, if service is so just used this supplier from as the host's of service providers server calls.What this helped that chain type calls service providers puts trustship (co-location) altogether.
The 5th, if service is being called and is playing affairs and handle the host of the server of coordinator's effect as service providers, so just use this supplier in the scope of issued transaction.This help in the issued transaction scope the supplier put trustship altogether.
The fault that can take place during method call can be categorized into: (1) relevant with application program or (2) relevant with infrastructure.Under the situation that the fault relevant with application program takes place, RA counterfoil module 580 is retry operation not, because can not expect to improve this situation.Under the situation that the fault relevant with infrastructure takes place, RA counterfoil module 580 perhaps can, or retry operation reliably perhaps.Some initial non-idempotent operations, for example the value of field in the incremental data storehouse may be finished.In one embodiment, have only (1) user of working as to state that method of servicing is an idempotent, perhaps (2) system can determine that processing of request never begins.As the latter's a example, if as the part of balancing method of loads, counterfoil module 580 switches to the ISP that its host has broken down, and RA counterfoil module 580 is with retry.As another example, RA counterfoil module 580 obtains the Negative Acknowledgement to the issued transaction operation, and then RA counterfoil module 580 is with retry.
This compiler of RMI compiler recognition command generates the distinctive mark of the RA counterfoil module that is used for object.It is idempotent (idempotent) that additional sign can be used for the regulation method of servicing.In one embodiment, RA counterfoil module 580 will utilize the copying processor shown in aforesaid and Fig. 5 a.Additional sign can be used for the different processor of regulation.In addition, on the point that service is arranged, promptly be bonded on the point of clique name service as described below, processor can be substituted.
Fig. 5 b represents an alternative embodiment of the invention, and wherein EJB551 is used to replace the counterfoil module shown in Fig. 5 a.
The command service of deferring to JNDI of III. duplicating
As shown in Figure 4, be to obtain to the visit of the ISP in the structure 400 by the name service of deferring to JNDI, in total 400, duplicate the command service of deferring to JNDI, make not have any single trouble spot.Therefore, if provide the treatment facility of the name service of deferring to JNDI that fault has taken place, then can use another treatment facility with the name service of duplicating.In order to provide the example of service, the supplier of advertisement service on the specific node of server in the duplicated naming tree.In one embodiment, each server RA counterfoil module that will be used for the supplier appends to the compatible services storehouse on the node of the server backup that is stored in naming tree.If newly provide the type that provides in the type of (offer) and the existing storehouse incompatible, then make time-out newly is provided, and make toward calling (callback) by the ConflictHandler interface.After the providing of any type was provided, another kind provided and will finally be installed in the everywhere.When client computer was searched service, client computer was obtained the client list of the RA counterfoil module in contact service storehouse with the refreshing service supplier.
Fig. 4 represents the name service of duplicating in the structure 400.In one embodiment, server 302 and 303 provides the ISP P1 and the P2 of example respectively, and has the duplicate of name service tree 402 and 403 respectively.Node acme.eng.example in the name service tree 402 and 403 has service library 402a and 403a respectively, covers the reference point of Example ISP P1 and P2.Client computer 304 is obtained RA counterfoil module 304e by name service search on the acme.eng.example node.The example in counterfoil module 304e contact service storehouse is with the current list of the reference point that gets access to the available service supplier.Counterfoil module 304e can need switch between the example of service library by load balance and fault handling.
Counterfoil module about the initial context of name service is to know counterfoil module that duplicate or intelligence, the load balance between its maiden work name ISP, and under situation about breaking down, switch.Each example of name service tree comprises current name ISP's complete list.Counterfoil module obtains refresh list from the current example of using.In order to guide this processing, system use Domain Naming Service (domain name name service) (" DNS ") with (may the be incomplete) initial list of finding out example and from they one of obtain complete list.For instance, can obtain about in the counterfoil module of the initial context of name service by following:
Hashtable?env=new?Hashtable();
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL,“t3://acmeCluster:7001”);
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,
“weblogic.jndi.WebLogiclnitialContextFactor”);
Context?ctx=new?InitialContext(env);
Some grouping services in the structure have been constrained among the DNS under the title acmeCluster.And application program still can be stipulated the address of each server, and still, when application program at first attempts to obtain counterfoil module, will there be single trouble spot in application program.
The multileaving agreement is desired reliably.In one embodiment, distribute supplier's counterfoil, and create the naming tree of duplicating by IP multileaving or peer-peer protocol.In IP multileaving embodiment, three types message: Heartbeat, Announcemem (notice), StateDump (status dump) are arranged.Heartbeat be used between server transmission information and by they existence whether, the server that identification is broken down.Providing and cancelling of one group of service is provided Announcement.Announcement from each server numbers in order.Announcement handled by each receiver so that the Announcement that identification is lost.Each server comprises the sequence number of last Announcement that has sent in its Heartbeat.NegativeAcknowledgement (" NAK " denies) about the Announcement that loses is included among the Heartbeat of output subsequently.In order to handle NAK, each server is the tabulation of last several Announcement of having sent of reservation server all.If arrive about the deleted NAK of Announcement, server just sends StateDump, and it comprises the complete list of service of server and the sequence number of its next Announcement.When new server joined in the existing structure, new server NAK (denying) was from first message of each other server, and this causes StateDump to be sent out.If server receives heartbeat (Heartbeat) from another server at the fixed time at interval afterwards, then server is provided by all services that provided by the server that does not produce heartbeat (Heartbeat).
IV. programming model
The application program that is used in the structure shown in Fig. 3 a, 3b, 3c, 5a and the 5b is used one of three kinds of basic programming models surely with the mode that will handle Application Status: (1) is stateless or direct, (2) stateless factory is (stateless factory) or indirect or (3) have a state or target is arranged.In the stateless model, look into the direct Reference Services supplier of smart stub module that look-up table returns by the name service.
Example?e=(Example)ctx.lookup(“acme.eng.example”);
result1=e.example(37);
result2=e.example(38);
In this embodiment, because for load balance, the smart stub module can be switched between different ISPs, therefore, two kinds of example is called and can be handled by different ISPs.Therefore, the Example service object can not represent application program at internal storage information.Usually, have only when supplier's stateless, just use the stateless model.For instance, pure stateless supplier can calculate some mathematical functions of its argument, and return results.Stateless supplier can be they canned datas, for example for the purpose of financial accounting.The more important thing is that stateless supplier can visit the permanent memory of bottom and as required in the state load memory with application program.For example, for make example return as argument enter all values wherein operation and.Before this example can read from database and, add in its current argument, write the value that makes new advances, then it is returned.This stateless service model has improved scalability.
In stateless factory program model, be to create the required service supplier's who himself is not the smart stub module factory by searching the smart stub module of returning.
ExampleFactory?gf=(ExampleFactory)
ctx.lookup(“acme.eng.example”);
Example?e=gf.create();
result1=e.example(37);
result2=e.example(38);
In this embodiment, guaranteeing that to example two kinds call by same ISP handles.Therefore, the ISP can represent application program canned data reliably.The stateless plant model should be applied in caller need carry out " dialogue " with the supplier time, and for example, caller and supplier can back and forth consult.Know the counterfoil module that duplicates generally with stateless and stateless plant model in identical.Unique difference is that counterfoil module relates to the ISP, also relates to ISP factory.
Supplier factory counterfoil module can optionally carry out fault handling in the process of making great efforts the establishment supplier, because this operation is an idempotent.In order further to improve the availability of service indirectly, application code must comprise around service-creation and the explicit retry circulation of calling.
while(true){
try{
Example?e=gf.create();
result1=e.example(37);
result2=e.example(38);
break;
}catch(Exception?e){
if(!retry?Warranred(e))
throw?e;
}
}
This will, for example, handle the fault of the supplier e that successfully creates by factory.In this case, application code should determine whether to finish non-idempotent operation.In order further to improve applicability, application code can attempt cancelling such operation and retry.
In the state programming model was arranged, the ISP was by the long-life of some unique system-level key word signs, status object is arranged.Can utilize the example of " entity " of the visit of this model to comprise row in Telefile and the database table.Target supplier can be by many client access many times, and these are only different by expendable other the two kinds of models of client computer with each supplier.The counterfoil module that is used for the target supplier can only be named the direct look-up table of service name by key word, or by key word comprise to the factory of the argument of creation operation both one of obtain.In each case, counterfoil module will not done load balance or fault handling.Even do, retry explicitly once more obtains counterfoil module.
Have three types beans module in EJB, wherein each is mapped to one of three kinds of programming models.Stateless session bean module (bean) is created for specific callers, but does not keep internal state between calling.Stateless session bean module is mapped to the stateless model.There is state session beans module to create, and between calling, keeps internal state for specific callers.There is state session beans module to be mapped to the stateless plant model.The entity bean module be by total system key word sign unusual, status object arranged.The entity bean module has been mapped to state model.All beans modules of three types are all created by the factory that is called EJB family (home).In one embodiment, the EJB family and the beans module both of their establishments use the RMI mark.In the structure shown in Fig. 3 a, 3b, 3c, 5a and the 5b, the counterfoil module that is used for EJB family is the smart stub module.The counterfoil module that is used for stateless session bean module is the smart stub module, is used to have the counterfoil module of state session beans module and entity bean module then not to be.Be used for to stipulate at its layout (deplotment) descriptor based on the copying processor of the service of EJB.
Indirect in order to create, based on the service of RMI, this is needed when object will be for the caller hold mode, application code must make up factory by explicitly.Have target, can be based on the service of RMI by need not any distinctive mark ground operation RMI compiler, the service of gained is attached in the naming tree of being duplicated creates then.The counterfoil module that is used for object will directly be attached to each example of naming tree and will not create any service library.It is the destination service that has of name service name that key word so just is provided.In one embodiment, this is used to create Telefile.
V. hardware and software part
The hardware and software part of exemplary servers shown in Fig. 8 presentation graphs 3-5 and/or client computer.The system of Fig. 8 comprises multi-purpose computer 800, and it is by such as the one or more communication mediums and the LAN 840 that connect 829, and also is connected with the WAN shown in the Internet 880 here.By LAN 840, computing machine 800 can be communicated by letter with other local computer such as file server 841.In one embodiment, file server 841 is servers 303 as shown in Figure 3.By the Internet 880, computing machine 800 can with such as Web server 881, local and other long-range compunication.In one embodiment, Web server 881 is the servers 303 shown in Fig. 3 c.Should be appreciated that 880 connection can realize by various modes to the Internet from computing machine 800, for example, directly by connecting 829, by LAN (Local Area Network) 840, or by the modulator-demodular unit (not shown).
